Someone tells me that it is very important that I dig hole #1 over there. I start working on hole #1. I am interrupted by someone asking me to fix their go-kart because it suddenly stopped going and they need to cross the finish line very soon. I tell them I'll look into it as soon as I get a chance. I'm next interrupted by someone asking me why they can't force their square peg into that round hole. I tell them it is because they originally requested I make the hole round and that they should stop trying to force square pegs into it. Someone tells me that it is very important that I dig hole #2 over here. I switch to working on hole #2. I have to stop working for a while so I can goto a room with a big table and listen to people say nonsense. I get a phone call (which I don't answer) coincident with an email message from Payroll telling me that if I don't send them their milk and cookies in 23 minutes they won't be able to eat them until next week. I tell Payroll there's no way their milk and cookies will be ready in 23 minutes, they demure and say they can actually wait two hours. It turns out that the go-kart won't go because the driver hadn't inserted the ignition key. Someone tells me that it is very important that I dig hole #1 over here now. I start to work on hole #1. I am interrupted by my fellow "programmer" who asks me what a hole is and how one uses a shovel. I explain it again. I send Payroll their milk and cookies. I start to work on hole #1. Someone tells me that hole #1 should really be a mound.
